| Summary |
"This book deals with the history of a central problem in the philosophy of time: Is time dependent on mind or consciousness, and if so, in what respects? Aristotle was the first to formulate this problem, and it has been intensively discussed ever since. This book analyses the answers and arguments and sets them in their historical context. Although there have been very different approaches, the book shows important continuities as well. Besides being a specialist monograph, it can be used in courses on the philosophy of time in general, or on the realism/idealism debate."--BOOK JACKET.
